Lamine's feeling for the right moment for the last pass is special. Only the best players in our history had this kind of feeling like Messi, Neymar, Iniesta. You don't learn that in training. You either have the feeling for it or not. This boy has it.

The last pass on Ferran that lead to the winning goal was another perfect example. He had to find the perfect millisecond window to pass to Ferran without him being offside and without the defenders intercepting it. This is raw talent.

I prefer to see him get annoyed he isn't influencing the match to the standard he expects than stand passively on the wing and just be happy to be there like most 17 years.

Now obviously he will have to be nurtured, but as a club we have a great track record of that.

Only thing I will say is that if we can get a decent fee for Kounde, then ship him off and find the best supporting RB that money can find for Lamine. Because the right wing is going to be our major attacking advantage for the next decade.

Was thinking that last night (I watched the first half). Several times Lamine played a lovely ball for Kounde on the overlap and Kounde totally fluffed it. He will be further enhanced by an attacking RB, like Salah has had at Liverpool with Trent.

That's one of the hardest techniques to master in football, the outside of the boot trajectory pass like that (Trivela).

Other stuff can be relatively simple with practice, but that is pretty hard. It's not just playing the ball with the outside of the foot, it's getting that extreme bend/curve on it too.
First touch/ball control is the hardest technique. You can see who is class and who isn't from one touch.

Other things like trivela, rabona...are just a bonus.

"That pass comes naturally to me already," the left winger reiterated. "It's a resource that is working very well for me lately, to be honest. It comes naturally to me, it's not that I'm doing it constantly in training, it comes out more or less on its own. And I've told Rapha that he has it [available to him]..."

"We're very happy, because the team has been very well in general. We had clear chances. In the second half they dominated us a little more, but we knew how to resist them, and the chances had to be taken advantage of," Lamine concluded.

That's true too. It's a bonus technique. Me personally though I find good first touch and ball control miles easier than a trivela - so I was talking from personal experience.
